Roasted Turkey Loaf with Fig Gravy & Chive Mashed Potatoes

Lightly saute bell pepper in oil.

In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly mix cooked bell peppers with turkey, eggs, Red Hot or harissa sauce, soy sauce, tomato juice, herbs, scallions, bread crumbs, onion powder and salt and pepper.

Fill nonstick individual loaf pans with 8-ounces each turkey mixture and shape into loaves.

Place loaf pans in full size steam table pans. Fill with hot water to 3/4 way up the sides of the loaf pans.

Bake in preheated 400 degree F oven for 40-45 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Boil potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain, leaving a touch of water in stock pot. Add chives, milk, butter, salt and pepper. Whip together until creamy.

Hold for service.

Saute onion in butter until onion is slightly brown. Add figs and Chinese five-spice powder, stirring regularly so figs do not stick. Deglaze with cider and turkey stock. Reduce until gravy is thick and rich.

Place mashed potato in center of plate.

Remove turkey loaves from the pans and place turkey loaf half on/half off the potatoes. Spoon gravy over turkey and potatoes.

Sprinkle chopped parsley over the entire presentation.

Garnish with additional fresh figs.
